Farmers Arms, Pontypridd

Blue Scrumpy left this review about Farmers Arms

Situated almost at the top of a rather steep hill, this is another local pub that makes it into the current Good Beer Guide. The single room is split is a few different sections, with the bar off to the right-hand side of the entrance.

3 real ales were on - Butty Bach, Cwrw Gorslas & Sleigh Puft. With Christmas well and truly over, I didn't risk the Sleigh Puft, but it was good to see a dark beer.

Once again, there was a good crowd of women in. In fact, with 2 barmaids, I was the only bloke in the pub. A TV screen showing a picture of a roaring log fire somehow had the effect of making the pub quite warm and cosy on what was a cold winter's day outside. I think the temperature inside was decent enough, but the fake fire did somehow make it feel warmer! There is a fairly large outdoor patio to the side of the pub for much warmer seasons. Workmen were giving it some kind of refurb/renovation whilst I was there.

Another friendly Welsh village pub.
